On August 1, 2019, Minnesota’s new Hands-Free Law goes into effect on Minnesota roads.  Minnesotans can no longer hold their phone to make or receive calls while operating a motor vehicle.  Additionally, the law prohibits drivers from video calling, Snapchatting, video live streaming, reading texts, and typing on their phones.  Drivers may use their cell phone to make calls, text, listen to music and access GPS navigation apps but only by using hands free technology such as voice commands and single-touch activation.
